The causes of Bulimia nervosa remain largely unknown but possibilities include:

Some people who develop this condition have been physically or sexually abused as children.
Some people have been in difficult family or sexual relationships.
Others appear not to have experienced these problems but still lack self-worth and need an outlet for their emotions.
Research suggests there may be a genetic link.
Social pressures to be thin to be sexually attractive may be a factor.
